It is reported by Sky News channel.

“The Ministry of Finance made it clear that there is no new money for defense, despite the recognition of the urgent need for rearmament after the start of Russian military operations in Ukraine,” the report says.

The Ministry of Defense, in turn, is concerned that any increase in spending on a multibillion-dollar program to build a new fleet of nuclear submarines could undermine the usual capabilities of the Royal Navy, Army and Royal Air Force.

Earlier it was reported that the heads of the Foreign and Defense Ministries of Britain and Australia will discuss the issues of training the Ukrainian military.

There was also information that Britain considered it inappropriate to supply fighter jets to Ukraine.
